Researching your Teaching

Critically reflecting on your teaching and participating in peer observation (for example through the Teaching and Learning Circle initiative) can help you to better understand the teaching and learning environment you provide in your course. You can further this understanding by engaging in the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning and conducting your own educational research.

A variety of teaching and learning research projects are possible. Use LibrarySearch to find examples of published educational research in your discipline area. If you have introduced a new, innovative teaching practice, you may choose to look at the change in your teaching practice closely and critically by examining the impact on student satisfaction, participation, engagement, and/or learning.
